In 2021, the translation agency published a lot of "heavyweight" books - not only the author and the work have weight, but also these books are really thick and heavy.
Among them, there are three books that can be called the "ceiling" of reading difficulty - "Ulysses", "The Second Sex" (commemorative edition), and "The Age of Nothingness".
These three books are also called "reading triathlons" by The Translator and his colleagues.
What was your first reaction when you heard the names of these works?
"Tome", "thick", "can't finish reading", "can only read the first few pages at a time"...
In fact, the difficulty and pleasure of reading are often directly proportional. Conquering "tomes" and challenging "can't finish reading" often has a special sense of accomplishment.
Whether you are a student or an office worker, the winter vacation and Spring Festival holidays are coming. Such a rare whole piece of time, instead of being used to "lie flat", why not take advantage of this great opportunity to conquer the "tomes" that are usually "nibbled"?
If people don't push themselves, they don't know how much potential they have!
If you want to enrich yourself this winter, then come and participate in the "Reading" Winter Reading Triathlon Challenge launched by Shanghai Translation Publishing House!
